The Rise Of The Ero Masseuse System - Chapter 33

 

“Hey, shitheads, what the fuck did you just do?”

Without meaning to, my Skill, [Sensitivity Vision (H)], had activated at an inopportune time.

Forced to see things I would rather live without, I was about close my eyes when I received an unusual yet unfamiliar sensation running through my body.

This is…. !?.

[Sensitivity Vision (H)]: Activated

A Skill that mainly used to visualize the ‘sensitive areas’ of those that I focus my attention on through colored lights. However, after using it first hand, I had discovered that this skill has a strange but useful side-effect as well. The feelings and emotions a person has in relation to me I would able to experience them as though they were my own, in real-time.

Whether it’s positive or negative emotions or feelings, I would feel them all just the same.

This is exactly what happened the moment my Skill activated upon these clowns.

I can feel the hostility in their gaze.

Even more so, I can feel their raw hostility as their feelings flow violently inside of me.

Fortunately or unfortunately, [Sensitivity Vision (H)] is capable of activating upon multiple people at once. Just as long as they are all caught in my vision. As a result, the combined hostility of these clowns formed a condensed soup of negativity so dense and disgusting that even the trashiest of eaters wouldn’t consume it.

Not wanting to tolerate such ‘trash’, I immediately tried to close my eyes in defense. But before that happen, there was an unusual response coming from my Skill.

an attack!?

From the skinny lanky guy who had grabbed my shoulder first, his intention to attack me has clearly echoed through my mind.

His will to knock my head off was so strong, I did not have a doubt in my mind that he would do it. Trusting this feeling, I immediately moved my head way off to the side.

The results of my decision were immediate.

Although he was trying to be sneaky, my eyes had captured the image of the male student’s index finger pointing slightly towards me. His lips also moved in a suspicious manner.

It is common knowledge that many Attack-Type Skills require voice activation in order to perform said Skill. While with training it is possible to skip that step, most students are incapable of reaching that sort of level having only recently received their Systems. Only through sheer talent or practicing a certain amount of time can such a feat be achieved by anyone.

(By the way, most non-Attack-Type Skills usually do not require a voice to activate which explains why I usually don’t say my Skills out loud.)

Whether loudly or quietly, as long as the User can recite their Skills name, they will be able to activate their Skill.

Lo and behold, the moment I moved my head, a blast of invisible energy passes by where my head was before. I could feel the intensity of the blast on my skin as it passed by me

This power even if it would not knock me out, receiving an injury from being hit would not be hard to imagine.

Really who in their fucking minds would use a possibly lethal Skill on another person just because of a refusal? It’s even done on the school grounds for crying out loud!

Right now, I am mad beyond belief.

If it were not my rational side and willpower holding me back, I would’ve instantly tried to attack them in retaliation. Only the knowledge that I am currently outnumbered and this is within the school grounds is keeping me in check. Without knowing the true abilities of these five, recklessly charging would be a fool’s mission.

“…? Tsk, I missed. You got lucky, punk.”

It seems Mr. Skin and Bones here thought I was merely lucky in dodging his move. This arrogance… I’ll use it. I’ll refer you as ‘Sticks’ from now on.

“Did you know what you just did? To attack another student in the Academy grounds… aren’t you afraid of the repercussions?”

Having neither agreed nor disagreed with his words, ‘Sticks’ took it as a sign of me being scared of his actions. Feeling smug, ‘Sticks’ puffed his scrawny chest in a show of power.

“Of course. I was just dishing out punishments for a mere ‘porter’ who doesn’t know his place. You probably would’ve been much happier getting knockout by me. Now you’re just gonna suffer more now. How unfortunate of you” Sticks here shakes his head in mock pity.

… What I wouldn’t give to punch him in the face right now.

“Seeing that your small mind doesn’t comprehend what I was saying, I’ll kindly tell you. This is a hallway. Cameras are placed everywhere here. Your little stunt had been completely caught in full HD. You understand?”

That’s right, the entire flow of events right now is being currently captured on the security camera all over this hallway. With security being tight against the illegal use of Skills within the academy grounds, it will be a matter of time before security arrives. Evidence is on my side.

Yet for some reason, none of the five stooges here showed any sign of worry over that fact. What’s going on?

“Hmph! Is that all you got to say? Well too bad for you, such a thing is not gonna happen. The Skill I used was a completely invisible attack that no camera is ever able to see. Even if security were to check the footage, there would be no evidence that I used a Skill in the first place. Even if I had knocked you out with it, as long as we can keep your mouth shut, there is no way of proving I did anything at all. My Skill even leaves no traces of any sort of damage. We were merely worried about our fellow student who suddenly fell unconscious right in front of us. I did this a few times already, I should know.”

I could feel my eyes turned into slits as I glared ‘Stick’s’ extremely confident look.

Did this a few times already? And he has yet to be caught?

Suspicious. There is no way the security in the Academy is that bad. But I have no way of disapproving his assertion.

Shit if what he said is true, then my plan to wait…

” I have been hearing nothing but bullshit coming out from your mouths this entire time. What the fuck you guys want?”

I was already fed up with having these guys stop me from getting my lunch. I don’t even know these guys and they’ve been after me for who knows what. Just make it clear already!

” Hah! At this point, it doesn’t fucking matter anymore. Fine! I’ll say it. We’ve heard you been getting way too over-familiar with our Queen lately. There is no way a ‘porter’ like you should get anywhere near her. We personally show you what happens, when a ‘porter’ like doesn’t know his fucking place.”

“That’s right!””You are not worthy!””Shit like you stay where you belong!”

The other four stooges began to become noisy as I tuned out their sound as I pondered what ‘Sticks’ meant.

” Queen? Ah, you meant Lexi—”

“Keep your dirty mouth shut! A fucking ‘porter’ like you has no right to even speak her name, let alone call her by a nickname!”

The moment I tried to say Lexi’s name, ‘Sticks’ immediatly tried to silence me.

Aaaah— so that’s it. It all makes sense now. These guys must be one of Lexi’s idolizers.

Rumors travel fast it seems. It was only this morning that revealed how I was friends with her to everybody.

While I already knew something like this would happen, but I didn’t think it would happen so soon. For pieces of shit like them to come… I would’ve never had imagined.

Knowing that there are many people that idolize Lexi is one thing, but learning that there are people like these guys within them is another. Lexi… for the first time I’m actually starting to pity you.

” ‘Queen’, you say? Cringe if ever heard one. What, did Lexi make you call her that?”

“I fucking said don’t even pronounce her first syllable, you trash! Even if our Queen did not tell any of us to call her that, it is the representation of our awe and unwavering loyalty for her. Not only she is beautiful, but she also holds one of rarest Battle-Type—–!!”

‘Sticks’ and the rest of the stooges continued to spew copious amounts of compliments and revealing their naked desires for Lexi in full display. Cringe, just cringe. There was no other way to describe it.

Really? This is just a ‘No’ from me. Of all the types of people that would bother me about Lexi, these are the ones who came.

Heh, I could only shake my head and laugh in exasperation. I can’t believe I was wary for idiots like these.

” What’s so funny?”

“Hahaha I don’t know Maybe it’s the thought that losers like you would actually do something so unnecessary and cringe like this I can’t help but laugh.”

“!?!”

It’s coming again. This time, I’m far more prepared.

Under my [Sensitivity Vision (H)], I could see ‘Stick’s’ movements like the back of my hand.

Tilt left. An invisible ball of energy brushed my right side.

Right tilt. As though trying balance out my neck stretching routine, an invisible ball brushed past my left.

A body blow this time? What the fuck is that slow timing? With an elegant spin, I dodged out of way like a ballerina.

If you gonna do this, get faster scrub.

“Hahaha!!! What’s wrong? Is your aim really that bad? How about getting your friends in on it too?”

“Shit!! Just fucking stop moving.”

I finally threw my caution out the window. The rational side of me still kept me from making any move myself. However, having them move against me first is a free game.

‘Sticks’ claims he had never been caught before and he never will. Let’s test that out.

Under my provocations, ‘Sticks’ continues to send out attack after attack. Seeing their friend showing a pitiful display as I continue to dance in front of him, I can feel their anger as it rises within me. But no matter what I did, the other four did not raise their hand to aid their friend.

Their reason? There could only be one.

‘Sticks’ was the one who said it first. With his invisible Attack Skill, he had never been caught for using it. ‘Sticks’ had looked so proud when he said these words. It was clear that this Skill was the reason for his reckless behavior of attacking me.

However, it did not slip by me that only ‘Sticks’ ever admitted to having this as a Skill. There was never a mention that any of his other friends can do the same thing he does.

It is clear. He was the only one that could do this trick. As long as his other friends do not have another invisible attack, they will never attack me lest they want to get caught on camera.

Wanting to attack yet they can’t. Stuck in this dilemma, I can see a struggle on their faces as they try to think desperately for ways to take me down.

“What up, O Great Battle-Type System User? You’re gonna let off a little old Support-Type like me draw circles around you?”

“Shit! Shit! So fucking annoying!. You guys! Just attack his mother fucker! Right now!”

“Eh? But the camera?”

“Are you just gonna let a ‘porter’ like him talk so much shit against us!?”

“~~!?”

That’s right. That’s the way.

Release all your Skills on to me.

I dodge all of their attacks. They get caught. I become scot-free from their tyranny. Perfect plan.

At first, I was a little apprehensive about doing this. Is it really a good idea to get them in to attack me all at once? What if I am unable to dodge them all?

But as I continue to dodge ‘Stick’s’ attacks, I began to understand something.

These guys their fighting strategy is complete shit.

Not wanting to have my eyes wander off from having all five of them in my vision, I was, at first, worried I would get distracted from experiencing the multiple different feelings I would get flowing through me as I continue to dodge ‘Stick’s’ attacks.

But when I open the lid, however, it was an unnecessary worry.

No matter whose thoughts it was, every single one of them thought to attack me in the same way at the same time.

Are you guys quintuplets or something, the decision you make in your heads are way too damn similar.

While the other guys didn’t attack, they kept thinking about what they would have done to attack me. Thus resulting in me having only to think to dodge just ‘one’ attack. If these guys were to attack together, they will probably just self-destruct from hitting each other’s moves.

If it is at this level I won’t even break a sweat. Got to get my victimized act ready for the cameras!

Just as I was about ready to put on the greatest acting of my life, an unfamiliar voice interrupted the middle of our ‘fight’.

“How about we stop right there, alright?”

A male student I have never seen before, once again, forced himself between me and the five stooges, forcing our fight to a stop.

Who is he? Is he an ally of them?

“Who the fuck are you!?”

It seems not.

“I’m just a passing warrior of justice here to stop this fight from going any further. How about it, won’t you stop for my sake?”

“Fuck off!! Don’t stick your head where it doesn’t belong! Or are you a that ‘porter’s’ friend? Either way, if you keep getting in our way, we’ll just destroy you too!”

“While I won’t deny anything, I don’t think it’s a good idea for you guys to continue. See? Look around.”

*bustle*

Hmm? My surroundings seemed noisier than they were before. I glanced at my surrounding in my peripheral visions, making sure the five stooges do not stray away from my sight.

From who knows how long, a number of students had begun to fill the hallways when I wasn’t looking. It looks like these are students who are returning from the cafeteria. In minutes, the number of people in our surroundings increased at an alarming rate.

Fuck doesn’t this mean lunch is already over? If it weren’t for these five stooges I would’ve gotten my lunch already.

I already snuffed hatred against them from ‘playing’ with them flared up again thinking about the lunch that I missed. I’ll remember this

The new male student spread his arms wide while giving a shrug.

“So what is it going to be?”
